Chapter 37: One Win, One Loss

As soon as he finished speaking, the two people on the stage continued to refine pills.

It was the same procedure as before. Jiang Xiaobai threw all the spirit herbs into the pill furnace in one go. This time, the crowd didn’t continue to ridicule him. Instead, many people felt a burning pain on their faces.

Previously, they had all ridiculed Jiang Xiaobai’s pill refining technique. Reality proved that it wasn’t impossible to form a pill. More or less, their faces were in pain.

At the same time, compared to the Foundation Establishment Pill, the requirements for refining the Essence-Enhancing Pill were lower. The main effect of this pill was to provide a cultivator with spiritual power to recover in a short period of time.

Most of it was used to deal with situations where there was insufficient spiritual power, so refining it was not very difficult.

However, the more simple the effect, the more difficult it was to reach a higher level. It was even more of a test of an alchemist’s pill refining standard.

Based on Kong Yuhuai’s victory in the first round, the people of Five Lotus Mountain were still relaxed. They believed that Jiang Xiaobai would definitely lose after this round.

Below the stage, Ao Cheng, Ao Yan, and the Third Elder were all staring at Jiang Xiaobai, wanting to see if he had any hope.

“Ao Cheng, don’t just stand there and watch. Jiang Xiaobai will definitely lose. His Highness the Holy Son’s alchemy skills are not something he can compare to,” Xu Nianliang said disdainfully.

“Shut your mouth. Even if Jiang Xiaobai is going to lose, his alchemy skills are still better than yours. Look at you. You waste so many spirit stones every day, but I don’t see you improving much,” Ao Cheng said in disdain.

“I… You!”

His words made Xu Nianliang speechless. Then, he snorted coldly and looked at Jiang Xiaobai unkindly while muttering at the same time. “No matter what, you’re bound to lose…”

Time passed quickly. In a relaxed atmosphere, seven to eight minutes quietly passed. This time, Jiang Xiaobai was the first to open the furnace. Less than half a minute later, Kong Yuhuai also opened the furnace.

After the pill was completed, two relatively good-quality Essence-Enhancing Pills were presented in front of the Elders.

“Hiss, the residual medicinal efficacy has reached 97%!”

An Elder looked at Jiang Xiaobai’s Essence-Enhancing Pills in disbelief. “Good fellow. I’m afraid even the Sect Master can’t do it so perfectly, right?”

“What, 97%? Let me see!”

The Elders began to observe Jiang Xiaobai’s pills. When they were sure that there was so much medicinal efficacy in it, they looked at Jiang Xiaobai in astonishment.

Kong Yuhuai sighed and shook his head. “It looks like I’ve lost this round. Brother Jiang’s alchemy skills are indeed amazing. 97% of the medicinal efficacy, and his speed is even faster than mine. It’s really unexpected.”

“You flatter me. It’s just a coincidence,” Jiang Xiaobai said humbly.

This behavior gave Kong Yuhuai quite a lot of points, and his recognition of Jiang Xiaobai increased by a few points.

He nodded solemnly, “For the last round, I will use all my strength. Brother Jiang, you must do your best.”

“Of course. I am waiting for the benefits from my brother-in-law when I return.”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then did not say anything else.

In the end, after a few rounds of judgment by the Elders, this round was won by Jiang Xiaobai. Kong Yuhuai’s Essence-Enhancing Pill only had 94% of its medicinal efficacy. It could be said that this level was almost the limit of a pill.

No pill could be perfect. Can you guarantee that under the burning of the flame, there would be no loss of medicinal efficacy?

At this moment, the audience below the stage had already begun to be dumbfounded.

Xu Nianliang stood in a daze. He gulped and muttered, “It’s just good luck. There’s still one more round. His Highness the Holy Son will definitely win.”

This time, Ao Cheng did not open his mouth to refute. He was already shocked by Jiang Xiaobai’s two moves.

It wasn’t just Ao Cheng. The Third Elder and Ao Yan were the same.

They only knew that Jiang Xiaobai could refine the Cleansing Pill, but they didn’t know how good his alchemy skills were. But at this moment, it seemed like he was on par with the Holy Son of Five Lotus Mountain!

This immediately made Ao Yan excited. Her mind was filled with anticipation for the result of the final round of the competition!

Almost everyone was looking forward to this.

The relaxed atmosphere had quietly become tense. The chaotic banter below the stage had already ended, and the arena was very quiet.

A gentle breeze blew, blowing away the hair of the two people on the stage.

The third round had already been announced to begin, but the two people did not move. Clearly, they were also preparing.

Taking a deep breath, Kong Yuhuai said, “Brother Jiang, let’s begin.”

Jiang Xiaobai nodded and didn’t say a word. He had already ignited a flame and thrown all the spirit herbs into the cauldron.

It looked like he was very nervous.

In fact, this fellow’s heart was quite relaxed. With Laojun’s alchemy skills, it would be extremely easy for him to defeat Kong Yuhuai.

Although it wasn’t all of Laojun’s alchemy skills, it was still possible to break through some of the alchemy limits. He could even refine pills with pill patterns now.

He estimated that Kong Yuhuai would at most have 95% of the medicinal efficacy. After all, the difficulty of the Bone-Tempering Pill wouldn’t lose out to the Foundation Establishment Pill. Whenever it involved the body and cultivation of spirit Qi, the difficulty of the pill would soar by a lot.

This test was the combination of different types of spirit herbs!

When they started refining the pill, Jiang Xiaobai had already thought of a countermeasure.

As the two focused on refining the pill, minutes and seconds passed, and the people below the stage became more and more nervous.

They didn’t even dare to breathe loudly, afraid that it would affect the two people on the stage.

At this moment, the people of Five Lotus Mountain no longer thought that Jiang Xiaobai was joking around. Instead, they treated him as someone with the same level of strength as Kong Yuhuai.

Ao Yan stared at Jiang Xiaobai’s face, her brows tightly furrowed, and her breathing was slightly hurried. She unconsciously clenched her small hands tightly. She didn’t even realize that her palms were already covered in fine beads of sweat.

It could be said that Jiang Xiaobai had already given her too many surprises up until now. She wanted Jiang Xiaobai to win from the bottom of her heart, but she couldn’t find a reason for it. In any case, she was just looking forward to it.

“We have to win!” Ao Cheng gritted his teeth and growled.

Everyone’s eyes were focused on the two of them.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xiaobai, who had a solemn expression, suddenly reached out and opened the lid of the pill furnace. The moment he opened it, Kong Yuhuai, who was opposite him, also opened the pill furnace.

However, his speed was a little slower.

‘Good, even if it’s one step faster, it’s still an advantage!’ Ao Yan could not help but think to herself.

Kong Yuhuai frowned and clenched his fists tightly. He took a deep breath as if he was unwilling to be one step slower than Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai also heaved a long sigh of relief. He looked at Kong Yuhuai and said, “Holy Son, shall we begin the test?”

“Brother Jiang, there’s no need to address me as such. Just call me by my name.”

“Alright then, Brother Kong. This is the final round. How confident are you?”

“I’ve done my best. I have no qualms about it.”

Kong Yuhuai smiled elegantly and gracefully. Jiang Xiaobai nodded with a smile as well.

Following that, the people who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward and took out the pills of the two of them and presented them to the various Elders.

At this moment, everyone’s hearts were in their throats. They had long forgotten the initial ridicule and had forgotten that they wanted to learn.

At this moment, their gazes were tightly focused on the two pills on the table.

What kind of result would it be?
